creasecollector Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Very nice. Pro players are always fun to play against. Makes you appreciate the pro goalies even more so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatCarGuy Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Didn’t notice til today that the shots from those guys were hard enough to snap the plastic in the back of my glove T. Thankfully it doesn’t affect play at all other than the pocket might be a little softer than before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes you appreciate the pro goalies even more so. So true! Back when I was in high school some of the guys from my hometown's minor league team (Komets) did camps every summer. It was mostly younger kids who did them, though, so I got a lot of 1:1 work with the team's goalie at the time and took tons of shots from the players. Jim Logan broke the plastic in the palm of my glove and my hand was numb from that same shot for probably the next 2 hours. But man, did going back to practicing against my own teammates seem a whole lot easier. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Math. Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 When you be checking if the in net cam is working, and it happens to be still working, makes for a great screengrab! (was trying to catch the blinking of the red light on my stick if it makes any sense). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilyazhito Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 This is a shot of me playing ball hockey in Wheaton this past summer. I'm way in the background, waiting for play to come my way. If I get more shots of me playing, ball or ice, I'll upload them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeperton Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Do they always touch the ice at that shallow of an angle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Bauer 9000s did the same. The squarer the boot the more contact I guess. My GT2s have that slight taper that prevents that. Then again, it might also depend if your toe ties are very slack and if your pads are oversized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeperton Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Maybe it's classic Vaughn boot channel. That was the only thing that really got me when I tried VE8s, but if it works for you that's totally fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tighter they are the higher they will sit Hard to say. I wear them relatively tight but the tighter I wear them the more they over rotate and don’t square up back to normal. I’ll try cranking the tightness a little more on the prof. strap and see what happens 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tied a double knot on the bungee cord after adding slack and put some stick tape around it for a bit of protection. Make sure both sides are even as you tighten it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
